How Renting Works
Here's what to expect, from finding the right machine to bringing it back.
Find what you need
Look through our equipment and prices, or start with the job you're doing.
Call or come by
We're here Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Items can be reserved in advance by prepaying the rental amount.
Get to work
If something goes wrong, call us right away. Please don't try to repair it yourself.
Bring it back
Return equipment that runs on fuel with a full tank, and your fuel deposit is fully refunded.
How long you can rent it
| Half day | 4 hours. See the 1/2 Day column on the price list. If an item has no half-day price, it rents by the full day. |
|---|---|
| Full day | See the Full Day column. On machines with an hour meter, a daily rental is for 8 hours, and extra hours are charged by the hour. For our dirt-moving machines, that's $45 per hour, or $35 per hour for the John Deere 17 Trackhoe and the Mini Skid Steer. |
| Week | Weekly rentals are 4 days with the 5th day free. If an item has no weekly price, call, and we'll give you a quote. |
| Month | A monthly rental gets you the equipment for 12 days. Call for pricing. |
| Weekend | The log splitter has a weekend rate: $135, pick up Friday and return on Monday. |

Getting it to the job

Hauling it yourself? You'll need a 2-inch hitch ball, or we can provide one. We also rent a trailer for hauling.
